I've been wanting to post an update about the BSDisc project for some
time.  However, I've refrained, since I was back-ordered, and didn't
want to encourage orders when I was temporarily out of product to
ship!

At any rate, we began shipping the new BSDisc around the middle of
June, and soon found that we'd produced too few discs.  After
completing another small production run, though, I'm now able to
accept new orders again.

Volume 1, Number 2 of the BSDisc contains:
	FreeBSD-1.1 (packed distribution sets and expanded trees)
	NetBSD-0.9 packed sets
	NetBSD-current snapshot (from the middle of May, packed and expanded)
	XFree86-2.1.1 distribution sets
	BSD news archive from minnie
	all the 1.1 packages from freebsd.cdrom.com
	all the 1.1 "ports" from freebsd.cdrom.com


Current pricing is $19.50 per issue for subscribers, $35.00 per issue
for non-subscribers.  Shipping/handling is $3.50 in the US, $8.00
internationally.

For more information about the BSDisc, its specific contents, or an
order form, please send us email at <bsdisc-info@grilled.cs.wisc.edu>.

We now also have a European reseller selling the BSDisc.  European
customers may prefer to contact our European reseller at
<bsdisc@altona.ppp.de>.

Thanks,

p.s.  I also have a limited number of the BSDisc Volume 1, Num 1
      remaining, that contains FreeBSD-1.0, NetBSD-0.9, and
      386bsd-0.1.  Great for historic value, at least.  ;-)  ;-)
      Let me know if you're interested in these.

p.p.s.  Our next disc will be entirely 4.4Lite-derived, and our plan
        is to include NetBSD-1.0 and FreeBSD-2.0.
